Subject: Another success story

Dear Dr. Lipshultz,

Last July (2009) you performed a vasectomy reversal seven years after my vasectomy. My wife and I conceived in October and had a beautiful baby girl on June 21st, less than a year after the reversal!  Words cannot express our gratitude.  Our lives are now complete! You have an incredible gift as a physician and we are eternally grateful for your work.

Most Sincerely,
Luis, Stacy and Sofia

Subject: Another Success

Dear Dr. Lipshultz,

My vasectomy reversal was done in November 2008 and was a success. Seven months later my wife conceived and we welcomed our new daughter on February 26, 2010. We now have five daughters and would like to thank you and your staff for doing your work so well. Although there are nine years between our two youngest daughters, we are very happy with our decision regarding the reversal and feel truly blessed to have a large family. I have attached a photo to place on your bulletin board showing all the success stories. Thanks again, we were very pleased with your services.

Sincerely,
Baxter S. and Family

Dr. Lipshultz,

Just wanted to add another success story to your testimonials! My husband received his reversal in February of '06 (it was a Christmas present "to" me). We were pregnant by September of that year, and our precious baby, Baxley Fisher Young ("Bax" for short) was born on June 25th, 2007. He is healthy, beautiful, happy, FULL of life, and a complete blessing to us! 

I've attached two pictures to show off our baby---the first is of Bax at 5 days old, and the second is him presently at age two!

Thank you again for our gift!

Subject: One more success!

Larry – well, WOW! Finally all the pieces fell together and I am able to let you know that you can add one more fantastic baby boy to your statistics! I tell people our story and am never in the place to write you a note. Things get a little hectic around here. Any way, he was born October 16, 2005. My husband David, received a reversal surgery from you in December of 2001. We tried for years to get pregnant, did IVF 3x and nothing. We had really given up. Then we had an adoption of a little girl fall into our laps. We had the adoption confirmed in January, 2005 and in February, 2005 I found out I was pregnant. Our daughter was born May 5 and then I gave birth in October. A good tax year for us! I have included his picture so you can appreciate the miracle even more. He is a wonderful boy, perfect in every way. Thanks for the good work that you do! We are so blessed. Love, David and Julie and JOSHUA!!

Dear Dr. Lipshultz,

This letter is long overdue...but or a very happy reason.  My wife and I would like to express our heartfelt appreciation for the efforts you made and the applications of your considerable skills on my behalf in reversing my previous vasectomy.  We knew the prognosis was not good, and that the chances of success were small, but you acceded to our wishes, and proceeded with the surgery in April of 2007.  You fully explained what we could expect in terms of a timeline, and we complied with all the steps along the post-surgical way.  We were ecstatic to learn in May of 2007 that the surgery was successful, and that I was one again delivering viable "swimmers"!

We immediately set to the "task" of achieving the end goal, and exactly on your predicted timeline under the scenario of "if all goes well", we conceived in September of 2007!

We are very pleased to include a picture of the resulting healthy birth of a very happy and low maintenance baby girl, Elizabeth Faima, who came into this world at 7 lbs, 2 ounces on June 7, 2008.  She has been a bright beam of sunshine in our lives, and we are enjoying every minute with her.

Words are a poor conveyance of the gratitude we feel, but please accept them with the knowledge that you have made us very happy as a result of your outstanding skills and diligence.

Warmest regards, 
Jim and Aybike

Dear Dr. Lipshultz,

We thought you might like to see our newest love.  We welcomed Molly Jane on April 10th.  In January of 2005, you performed a vasectomy reversal on my husband, Michael.  We were pregnant by April and had our daughter Emily in December.  2005 was a great year!

We started trying again in July of 2007 and got pregnant that month.  We had no idea the reversal would work so well!!

Thank you so much for all you have done for us.  Our lives wouldn't be the same without our girls.  You have helped make these little miracles possible.

Sincerely,

Ali D.

Dear Dr Lipshutltz:

In 1994, you did a vasovasostomy on my husband Sam, 16 years after his vasectomy. Forty-five days after the procedure, I got pregnant. As a fruit of that pregnancy, I bore a son, Ryan. He is now 13 years old. He is smart and talented beyond what we had prayed for. He is in the gifted program in school. At 8 years old, he obtained his black belt in karate. He has been in the national competition and has won medals plus several state and local competitions. He also plays a mean game of golf. He has since shifted to music. In less than four years since he started his piano and has won piano competitions and the acclaim of music teachers and judges. He will be performing his first solo piano recital at the Arizona State University School of Music Recital Hall this on June 28, 2008 playing college level pieces.

Thank you very much. My husband and I cannot imagine life without him.

Subject: Our miracle because of you

Dear Dr. Lipshultz

You did a reversal on my husband (Charles Y.) in January 2003 after he had a vasectomy about 12 years before. We tried and tried for a baby for about a year, we tried IUI and were told we would never conceive because my husbands sperm were covered 100% in Antisperm Antibodies. The doctors in San Antonio told us our only hope was Invetro which we could not afford. At that time, March of 2004 we lost my husbands 18 year old son as a victim of a robbery and he is now our angel in heaven. Three months later, my husbands other 2 children moved 2,000 miles away to Colorado. Needless to say our world came crashing down on us and we were devastated beyond words with our loss. We gave up hope on everything and could not bear anymore heartbreak. I had not tracked my ovulation in 2 years, but God had plans for us and we conceived on Thanksgiving Day 2006. We now have a beautiful & healthy little girl born August 7, 2007. Madison Lea York is almost 5 months and is our miracle from heaven. My husband and I are blessed and grateful for her after everything we have endured. We Thank You and God. May God bless you always. Love the York Family.

This is just a letter of thank you. My husband (Donnie Dotson) and I came to see you after seeing MANY Doctors in the New Orleans area. And the first day we came to your office (we now live in Sulphur) you did a total check up on my husband and pin pointed the problem. That it was a vain problem. This was in one visit! My husband had the surgery and you said give it about 3 months. Well guess what we got preg. right on time 3 mths. after the surgery. I am now 7 mths. (After 5 years of tying and going to many doctors that said there was NO hope other than Invitro) So I want to thank you for making us whole again after being broken by so many other doctors. Thank you and may God bless you and yours.

Dr. Lipshultz,

This thank you is long overdue, but we have had our hands full the last 17 months. On January 13, 2005, you performed a vasectomy reversal on my husband, Michael. We found out that we were pregnant on April 26, 2005. 3 months!! I never dreamed that it would happen so quickly. Our sweet Emily Ann was born on December 16, 2005. She is now a very busy, talkative 17 month old. She is absolutely the light of our lives. We can never express how grateful were are to you for what you have done for us. God bless you.

Subject: A Thank You!

Dear Dr. Lipshultz, You performed a vasovasectomy on my husband, Eric Winkler, about 4 1/2 years ago. We concieved our first son, Chase, a little more than a year later. We called your office to thank you but never sent a "Thank You" via mail or e-mail. Chase is a healthy 3 1/2 year old. We have Dylan who turned 2 in January & are expecting our third child this July. We often joke around saying, "whatever Dr. Lipshultz did, we don't know how to turn it off!" You are a fantastic surgeon & we appreciate what you did for us. You gave us a family & we can't thank you enough. Keep up the good work.

Sincerely, Eric, Tammy, Chase & Dylan Winkler of Austin, TX


July 2005

Dear Dr. Lipshultz,

Better late than never I always say. You did my reverse back in October of 2003 and finally, our miracle baby has arrived. Connor Jackson Bell arrived healthy and happy on December 6, 2004. We are so happy and thankful. Connor is beautiful in all ways and we can't get enough of him. Now, at 7 months old, Connor is crawling and pulling himself up on everything. We're hoping number two won't be far away!

Thank you very much for helping us to finally have that child we've wanted for so long. After three unsuccessful in-vitro attempts, it came down to reconnecting the plumbing and you certainly were the person to do it. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your skilled hands. Connor is such a blessing.

I should mentioned that it had been 22 years since my vasectomy when you performed the reversal. That is certainly a testament to you and your practice.

Forever Grateful,
Dave & Vonnie Bell

We discovered on Wednesday morning that my wife, Ali, is pregnant. I was hoping to have more practice! :) She confirmed at the Doctor's office that morning and they set a date of January 1.

Your efforts have given another family a blessing. Your success rate gets another notch in the win column.

Hi Dr. Lipshultz
We haven't communicated for quite some time. My husband, Douglas W.Kipling had his vasectomy reversal 11/11/03. His latest results were fantastic.85 million with 75% rapid forward.Strong agglutination,though.  In Sept we started with Dr. Edgar henriques/fert spec.  All my bloodwork is fine FSH levels etc . My hsg xray was fine no blockages.  We had 12-14 per field of forward prog sperm after our post-coital test. He doesn't see any reason why we're not pregnant yet. If there are sperm antibodies my husband is producing would this not have been evident with the postcoital test? Is it possible antibodies attached to the head would affect fertillization only  but not movement through the cervical fluid? Dr. Henriques is treating us with clomid/IUI next cycle. Do you have any thoughts?
Thank you so much Dr. for your time in responding to my questions
Sincerely
Christine Kipling

Dr. Lipshultz,

Just a note to let you know you can add us to your list of successes.  You did a reversal on me last spring, roughly 14 years after my vasectomy.  On June 3rd 2004, Allison Susanne Ball arrived.  She's healthy and doing well.  Okay, so how do you turn this thing off?  Ha ha.  You are truly a skilled surgeon - THE BEST.  Thank you.

Hello, Dr. Lipshultz:

As you know by now, Janet and I are the proud parents of Rachel Camryn King! She was born in Little Rock on September 25, 1999. She is an absolute angel and a dream come true! We both believe that she is a miracle! When we think of the obstacles that were ahead of us, we truly believe we have been blessed! Of course, without your help, we would not have her today. I really never thought I could have children again since my vasectomy was done in 1981. Doctors here in Little Rock told us that our chances were very slim. And, if we wanted to go forward, then only one person could give us the best opportunity for success: you. 
Thanks again for putting your skills and talent to work for us. We shall never forget you and your fine staff!

Several weeks ago, one of your associates called us. He asked us for permission to use Rachel's picture on your web site. (We had sent it to you some time in the past.) We said "Of course use it!" And, since that day we have been looking for her picture on this site. So, if you would, have someone put her pretty face on your web site. We will be so happy to see it there!

In the meantime, we wish to you and your staff the very best and a safe and happy holiday season!
